Albuquerque

Duke City

Albuquerque remains one of the state's secret jewels, as its tourist attractions are often overshadowed by the more popular holiday destination of Santa Fe.

Get out of town with these interesting Albuquerque side-trips: Los Alamos (Bandelier National Monument & Bradbury Science Museum), Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument (in Cochiti Pueblo) and Santa Fe (Museum of International Folk Art, New Mexico Legislature, & more). The adventure continues: soar above the sights with a balloon tour, putt your heart out at Hinkle Family Fun Center, have fun at Downs at Albuquerque, and make a trip to Old Town Albuquerque.

The Route module shows you travel options from your home to Albuquerque. In October, daytime highs in Albuquerque are 73°F, while nighttime lows are 48°F. Finish your sightseeing early on the 14th (Sun) so you can travel back home.
